Global Longitudinal Strain Predicts Poor Functional Capacity in Patients with Systolic Heart Failure

Arquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia
Background: Left ventricular global longitudinal strain value (GLS) can predict functional capacity in patients with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) heart failure (HF) and to assess prognosis in reduced LVEF HF.

Statistical shape modeling of the human inner ear through micro‐computed tomography imaging

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
In this study, 54 cadaveric temporal bone specimens underwent high‐resolution micro‐CT imaging. Images were semi‐automatically segmented and converted to 3D surface mesh models for morphological measurement and analysis. Statistical shape models were created for the inner ear, cochlea, and vestibular system, as well as for sex‐ and side‐based subgroups.

Excessive Femoral Anteversion Associated With Worse Clinical Outcomes Following Hip Arthroscopic Surgery and Higher Prevalence of Anteroinferior Labral Tears in Patients With Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome

Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To compare intraoperative findings associated with instability and clinical outcomes after hip arthroscopic femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) surgery in patients with normal anteversion (NA) and excessive femoral anteversion (EA). Methods Inclusion criteria were FAIS cases who underwent primary arthroscopic management from January ...

Continuous Sewing Machine‐Like Suture Provides Higher Failure and Yield Load Compared to Traditional Techniques for Meniscal Root Repair in a Biomechanical Porcine Model

Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To evaluate the biomechanical performance of the sewing machine‐like suture (SMS) technique against three established techniques (two cinch‐loop (TCL), modified Mason‐Allen (MMA), and double Mason‐Allen (DMA)) for transtibial pull‐out repair of posterior medial meniscal root tear (PMMRT) in a porcine model.

Minimalist Footwear Acutely Alters Running Kinematics in Runners With Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome

Arthroscopy, Sports Medicine, and Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Purpose To assess immediate biomechanical changes in runners with medial tibial stress syndrome (MTSS) when transitioning from standard to minimalist running shoes. Methods Active runners diagnosed with MTSS ran on a treadmill at 10 km/h using standard and minimalist running shoes. Hip, knee, and ankle joint kinematics were captured using a 16‐infrared‐
